Their high  connectivity and digital habits have transformed these platforms into strategic channels for marketing and communicationdirected at this audience. In this context, the present study analyzes the effect of social media marketing on purchase decisions and customer satisfaction among Peruvian millennial consumers, with the aim of providing an in-depth understanding of online consumption patterns and offering valuable insights for the development of effective tailored business strategies. The results of the structural equation modeling (SEM), applied to a sample of 437 Peruvian millennials, reveal a positive effect of social media marketing on both purchase decisions and customer satisfaction. Entertainment, personalization, and service efficiency were also identified as having a significant influence on consumers' satisfaction.
